A free IT support service is available in Rutland for over 50s looking to improve their computer literacy.

Whether you're a complete beginner and want to get online for the first time or would like to brush up your skills, Age UK Leicester Shire & Rutland can help.

We are living in a digital age, where the need to be online and use the internet for daily living has become more important than ever.  Whether accessing services, booking appointments, travelling, shopping, banking or communicating with family and friends, we increasingly need to be web-savvy.

Age UK's friendly experts provide free help with:

  • starting with a new device (with an option to borrow a device)
  • making video calls to friends and relatives across the world
  • using email and social media 
  • shopping, banking and making appointments on the internet
  • enjoying online TV and radio from all channels at times to suit you
  • watching videos showing recipes, exercise, music, DIY and crafts
  • learning about internet security 

You will find them in Tesco on South Street, Oakham LE15 6BQ every Thursday from 2pm until 4pm. 

There's no need to book, just go to the Customer Service team, who will direct you to their room.  

For more information, please call 0116 204 5117 or email [email protected].
